\n\t\tA new memoir by Priscilla Presley.\t<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\n\tIf you didn\u2019t know, Priscilla met Elvis when she was just 14 and he was 24. The singer was serving in the U.S. Army in 1959 in Germany. The pair remained romantically connected for years, even with distance between them and in 1967, they were wed in a simple and very secret ceremony in Las Vegas. While their separation in 1973 was painful for Priscilla, this novel highlights why it was so important for the Naked Gun<\/em> star to leave.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt seems that Priscilla<\/a> lost touch with herself throughout her relationship with Elvis. Leaving allowed her to find herself again. Through the book, we are treated to snippets of Priscilla\u2019s life pre- and post-Elvis and how she had to reinvent herself a second time as the single mother after the performer\u2019s death in 1977.<\/p>\n

\n\tToday, we are taken through how Priscilla was able to transform Graceland into an international destination and helped guide the development of Elvis Presley Enterprises, turning the King\u2019s legacy into a full-on business. If you are an Elvis fan, this gives readers a unique perspective on his life, as told by his ex-wife. It also gives Priscilla\u2019s story more context for those who aren\u2019t too familiar with her life and career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
